Night import
Solar panels do not generate at night, so electricity comes from the grid unless a battery-backed system is installed.
How On-Grid Solar Works
Power Comes From Grid at Night
Grid supports night and shortage hours.
Step overview
At night, during rain, or when solar generation is lower than demand, the electricity grid supplies the shortfall. This is why on-grid solar is best where grid availability is stable.

Shortfall support
If appliances need more power than solar is producing, the balance is imported automatically from the grid.

Stable grid is important
Standard on-grid solar is ideal where utility supply is reliable and bill reduction is the main goal.
